This friday I’m playing a set at The Student in Bruxelles, together with Disposición Asoleada and Adjani. Promises to be a great night and it’s been a long time since I’ve been in Brussels so very much looking forward!

Sunday night: four different guitar acts .. I’m happy to join Yuri Landman on is home-made guitar-inspired instruments // Or Sobre Blau which is the duo of Andreu Ubaldo and Kiran Leonard // Flowers/Ghosts & Echoes the psychy duo of James McEwann-Alexandropoulos with Gonçalo Oliveira with live visuals. Nice sunday night in Den Haag, come down!

SILVER GHOSTS is possibly Den Haag’s longest running tape label, steadily uncovering underground gems for some 15 years now. All sold out and highly sought after. This friday, April 12, Silver Ghosts celebrates the release of 2 new tapes at Helicopter.

The two new cassettes are by THE SUNSHINE LOUNGE and EERIEAR who will both perform live that evening. The newly formed duo GANGPAD, by Silver Ghosts’ head honcho Manuel Padding and myself, will play too. Manuel plays water drums and I’m playing an amplified piece of wood (no, I don’t mean a guitar).

The SOTU festival is the number one underground festival, every year in Amsterdam. I’m happy to have played there multiple times, in different settings. This year there’s a benefit for the festival happening in my town of Den Haag, at de Samenscholing. And I’m happy to be a part of this! Drop by, this needs your support. See facebook for details

Arvind Ganga is a guitar player from Den Haag, the Netherlands. He takes a physical approach to guitar playing, employing objects and extended techniques to explore new sonic possibilities. His music draws from influences as diverse as noise and drones, North Indian ragas, experimental rock, and everyday sounds. With free improvisation he brings these together into an intense, loosely structured, chaotic mesh that is bathing in the rays of a deep red sun. Ethereal noise with a punk-improv attitude. Arvind plays solo, improvises with like-minded musicians, and is active in music/dance improvisation. His music took him to play squats, galleries, clubs and festivals from Poland to Portugal, England to Slovenia, Turkey, Chile, Perú, Thailand and Myanmar.
